Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Gyeongbokgung Palace, 161 Sajik-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul South Korea
Gyeongbokgung Palace is arguably the most beautiful, and remains the largest of all five palaces.
Remarkably, the most representative edifices of the Joseon Dynasty, Gyeonghoeru Pavilion and Hyangwonjeong Pond have remained relatively intact.
Woldae and the sculptures of Geunjeongjeon (The Royal Audience Chamber) represent past sculptures of contemporary art.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Insadong, Insa-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul South Korea
Insadong is a valuable space where old but valuable traditional objects are exchanged in the middle of the city.
Packed with galleries, traditional crafts shops, antique shops, traditional tea houses, traditional restaurants and cafes
Stores in Insa-dong are very popular with young people as well as middle-aged people for their unique style.
Foreign tourists who visit Korea to see traditional Korean culture buy old-fashioned dried pollack or gomisul at traditional stores. And buy the peels on the street and eat the traditional scallions.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Bukchon Hanok Village, 37, Gyedong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul 03059 South Korea
Surrounded by Gyeongbokgung Palace, Changdeokgung Palace and Jongmyo Shrine, Bukchon Hanok Village is home to hundreds of traditional houses, called hanok, that date back to the Joseon Dynasty.
The name Bukchon, which literally translates to “northern village,” came about as the neighborhood lies north of two significant Seoul landmarks, Cheonggyecheon Stream and Jongno.
Today, many of these hanoks operate as cultural centers, guesthouses, restaurants and tea houses, providing visitors with an opportunity to experience, learn and immerse themselves in traditional Korean culture.
Duration: 2 hours
